UNSPSC 86141602: Students unions

UNSPSC 86141602 Students unions is a Commodity code. The code encompasses out-of-school time enrichment programs, youth and family enrichment services, fine arts instruction, and academic enrichment activities for Pre-K through high school students. State and local governments procure enrichment programming through this code to support student development in areas including STEM, arts, career readiness, sports, foreign language, culinary arts, and specialized academic pathways. Issuing bodies include large independent school districts, city departments partnering with school systems, and regional education authorities. Recent solicitations show Austin Independent School District, Fort Bend Independent School District, Cypress-Fairbanks Independent School District, Dysart Unified School District, and Tacoma Public Schools actively recruiting enrichment service vendors. Many districts use standing-vendor RFP frameworks that create multi-year approved vendor lists rather than one-off service awards, allowing campuses and departments to draw from the roster without recompeting.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas and the Pacific Northwest. Fort Bend Independent School District posted RFP 27008LB on September 8, 2026, seeking out-of-school time and academic enrichment programs for Pre-K through 8th grade across 30 campuses, with a pre-proposal conference on September 22 and proposals due November 10, 2026; the district expects a 30 percent revenue share to cover operations and seeks vendors to offer instruction in Academic Readiness, Arts, Crafts & Culture, Computer Science, Culinary, Fine Arts, Foreign Language, Sports & Fitness, Dance, Music, and STEM.
